Preferably looking for female language partners. Arabic (Standard or Algerian Dialect): I really like to get started again with improving my Arabic. Either Standard Arabic (I did several courses but guess I need to refresh what I learned...) or Algerian Dialect (quite motivated to learn it but not sure how to do it without a person helping me as textbooks seems to be rare). Spanish/Español: Creo que mi Español es muy mexicanisado... Sobre todo me falta la practica como no tengo gente alrededor de mi con los cuales puedo platicar... French/Francais: Il y a becaucoup des années que j'appris francais et j'ai oublie surtout la grammaire.... J'aimerais bien mettre fin a cela. Russian: Currently, my learning is more put on hold in favour of other languages I like to improve. But if you think that you are a good language partner and like to convince me that I should better have a go at Russian, write me.

    Traditionally mainly women take the surname of the men when marrying, however, as well men have the option of taking the women's surname. Sometimes the decision is based on which surname of the two options is "nicer" for both.
    There is as well the quite common option for one partner of the couple to hyphenate both surnames. For such circumstances, there is a regulation since some time that children cannot get the hyphenated surname as these hyphenated surnames tend to get quite lengthy in comparison to non-hyphenated ones.
    Some married couple choose as well the last option: Each one of them stays with his/her maiden name.

    In case of a divorce, the divorcee who had changed his/her surname at the time of getting married can either stay with the surname obtained at that time or change it back to his/her maiden surname.

    Moin, moin is used in the North of Germany. I 'd say that Guten Tag is possibly more official (e.g. when being customer in a shop, whereas friends you would greet with Hallo as Thekyr mentioned already. Grüß Dich and Grüß Gott are not only used in Austria but as well in Bavaria (but anyway Bavarian German has quite some things in common with Austrian German).
